American gun loons make up lies about Australia
"Seth Hammond" wrote in message ... Crime up Down Under Since Australia's gun ban, armed robberies increase 45% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By Jon Dougherty © 2008 WorldNetDaily.com Since Australia banned private ownership of most guns in 1996, crime has risen dramatically on that continent, prompting critics of U.S. gun control efforts to issue new warnings of what life in America could be like if Congress ever bans firearms. Complete and utter garbage! Is this how the American gun lobby operates? Just making up statistics and telling lies? Do they think they can say this sort of thing and get away with it just because Australia is on the other side of the world and they rely on Americans not to know what really happens over here? Anyone who lives in or pays any attention to Australia would know that there is nothing in this article from "WorldNet Daily" which is true. It's contary to all published facts and all anecdotal experience over here. It is total fiction. Here is just *one* of numerous reports that have been published in Australia in recent years about the success of the gun restrictions introduced after the Port Arthur massacre. http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/...180487704.html In addition, the Australian Bureau of Statistics website http://www.aic.gov.au/publications/rpp/77/ says "In 2005-06, there were 283 incidents of homicide, resulting in 301 victims and committed by 336 offenders. Since 2001-02, there has been a downward trend in the incidence of homicide, however during the current year, it has increased by 14% compared to 2004-05. This represents an increase of 34 homicide incidents. The overall trend in the incidence of homicide has remained stable over the 17-year period since the Australian Institute of Criminology began monitoring in 1989." |

So, the only crime that occurs in Australia is homicide? No matter how I try, I cannot make sense of this reply. How did you reach that conclusion and what point are you attempting to make? |

They can't cope with the truth. |

American gun loons make up lies about Australia
Guess that I'd believe the reputable Australian national broadcaster before I'd believe an american pensioner who, to be frank, displays symptoms of early-onset Altzheimers. You were Frank yesterday. It's your turn to be Emily. You lying trash saw your crime rates soar when you were practically forced at gunpoint to report crime by world standards instead of selective reporting practiced since you ****en criminal gringos got there. I hope the Abos use knouts and cattle prods on you as they strip you clean. Have they emptied your concentration camps yet? |

Crime has been their way of life for long generations. They've lied, cheated, raped and killed the aborigines and kept no records of any kind. They'd still be lying and covering up their terrible crime problems, but they were forced to join the world and use crime reporting procedures common to nearly all nations in the world. Those standards were established by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation, (FBI). That's what really grinds their ass. |

Your record-keeping of crime has become known world-wide. You were the laughingstock a few years back. Er, that was before your rate was as high as it is now. Er, too bad about losing your guns innit. |

They can't cope with the truth. Hey, I'm sorry your masters won't let you have guns. I guess if you just weren't so goddam irresponsible. Butt weight, maybe it's a matter of them fearing you. Have they been ****ing over you lately? I mean more than the usual? Are they afraid you might want to take over the island? No, I remember now; it's because if you had guns you'd shoot each other at random. Them mean ole guns would take over and make you do bad things. Oh by the way, don't beg us for any more of our personal guns, OK? When fritz comes back to finish the job - be brave. |

Dave, just between you and me: It's likely that some of your adversaries in usenet have been privately gloating at the unwittingly self-deprecating irony of your favorite neologism. _Somebody_ had to tell you, so temptation beat my better nature to the draw and I eventually decided that the messenger might as well be me rather than one of those adversaries. But please don't shoot the messenger!
